Wedding Corsage

I think it's a nice touch. I did pin on corsages for my mom, step mom, mentor, and sisters. They were not that hard to do or cost that much in the scheme of things.

They could definitely be considered extra. We are doing boutonnieres for everyone, including the mothers, and you can buy them real for much cheaper than corsages, or buy pre-made ones with silk flowers on Etsy or Amazon for very cheap (they come in packs). Corsages are SUPER expensive in my area - they start at $23 each and that's for basic ones. We were not interested in paying $50+ for such a little amount of flowers LOL.

We ordered corsages for my mom, my husband's mom and his stepmom. I thought it was a really nice touch to make them feel special.

I am doing them for my mom, MIL, and grandmother.

I did it for our moms and my sister in law who walked during the processional. i think it's a nice touch

We ditched the corsages and did nosegays instead (basically baby bouquets). We felt this was more appropriate for their age (50's) and the corsages were kept for the grandmas.

We had a church ceremony so we wanted them to be able to hold something walking down the aisle but if your moms are cool with it I'm sure you can ditch them altogther.

We are going to be doing our own flowers as well and plan to make our own corsages!

I think if you're making them yourself it could potentially be cost effective! For our corsages we're using roses, babies brewath, and eucalyptus (we need 10 corsages which translates to roughly $20-ish in flower cost since we bought from a wholesaler), I bought all the corsage wristlets from amazon for I believe $12 for a bag of 10 of them, and then we bought our actual flower supplies (tape & wire) from Walmart for about $10 - which amounts to pennies per corsage haha. So that amounts to be, on the high end, $50 for all 10 corsages which was worth the cost for us!

I say if you want to invest the time, go for it! Its a nice touch

I skipped the boutonnieres and the corsages all together. no one missed them and everyone looked nice without them. so if you don't want to have them you could cut it. if its an extra look you'd like to have then go for it.

You should ask your moms. My mom didn't care about having a corsage and I literally just got off the phone with my FMIL because I called her to ask if she wanted one and she told me it wasn't something she cared about either. Wrist corsages can be itchy and not everyone likes the idea of pinning a corsage to their dress, so I think it makes sense to ask before you waste time and money on something people might not even like anyway. We are skipping the corsages entirely, but still getting boutonnières for the guys (FH, groomsmen, his dad, and our officiant), and both myself and my MOH will have bouquets.

My FMIL will have her husband to walk her down the aisle and I think my mom is going to walk our dog down the aisle so it's not like they won't have anything to do with their hands.

I'm still debating if I want pin or wrist corsages for the moms and flower girl. I think I'm leaning towards the pins since they might be less in the way.

I ordered corsages for my mom, FMIL, and godmother. I thought about it and I do think it's an extra expense, but I would like them to stand out somehow.
